Steps to reproduce: 1. Open at least two activities and at least two virtual desktops. 2. Open any application, say Firefox. 3. Switch to a different activity *and* a different virtual desktop. (Things work fine if the window is either in the same activity or the same virtual desktop) 4. Search for "firefox" in krunner and select the result in "Windows" category. Expected behaviour: The window should become visible and get focus. What happens: Focus switches to the correct activity, but not the correct virtual desktop.
I just noticed that the same problem happens when I try to use "wmctrl -a Firefox" instead of krunner. So, this is likely not a bug in krunner but in the window manager (Kwin).
Another observation: this problem only happens when "Remember the current virtual desktop for each activity" option is selected in the System Settings > Desktop Behaviour > Activities > Switching. Looks like this setting is overriding the virtual desktop change that would have happened otherwise.
